The 1999 World Figure Skating Championships were held in Helsinki, Finland from March 20 through 28. Medals were awarded in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dancing.
1999 was the first year that the qualifying competition in the Men's and Ladies' events counted towards the total score. Qualifying was 20% of the total score, the short program 30% and the free skate 50%.
The competition was open to skaters representing an ISU member nation.
Due to the large number of participants, the men's and ladies' qualifying groups were split into groups A and B. In the ladies' qualifying group B, Klara Bramfeldt (SWE) and Marion Krijgsman (NED) tied for 17th place, leading to a three-way tie in overall standings for 33rd place in the ladies' event.
